Fatty Zhou has a hobby of entering brothels. When he was studying in the Imperial College, he often went out to sleep in the willows. Now, when he arrived in Qingzhou, thousands of miles away, he naturally would not be at peace.

The fat man smiled and squeezed his eyes at Lin Zhao: "I walked around the city and didn't see any decent restaurants. Sanlang, as a landlord, don't you take me around?"

"Stop, I'm not interested in that kind of place."

At this moment, the two of them had already walked to the door of the study. Lin Zhao gave this guy a blank look, pushed the door and walked in, poured a cup of tea for Fatty Zhou, and stretched out his palm.

"Come on."

Fatty Zhou blinked, wondering: "What are you taking?"

"Issue."

Lin Zhao said angrily: "Didn't you say you came to Qingzhou to issue the order? Come here quickly. I'm urgently using this thing now."

Fatty Zhou rolled his eyes and said with a smile: "This thing must be read in public to be useful. It is useless for me to give you here. Besides, before I came, the saint gave me instructions that I could only give you an imperial edict after I checked the situation in Qingzhou is true."

"Scene, what's going on?"

Lin Zhao put his hands together in his sleeves and looked at his roommate quietly: "Let's see if Cangzhou is in my hands?"

Fatty Zhou nodded, his tone was a little helpless: "The sky is high and the emperor is far away, and the saint is afraid that you will blow the magic snails in the memorial to deceive the court."

"There's nothing to cheat on."

Lin Zhao's face was calm and he spoke, "If I was not mistaken, Chang'an City is now in danger. What else can I trick from the court at this time?"

Upon hearing this, Zhou De looked up at Lin Zhao and sighed softly: "Sanlang is really different from before."

Lin Zhao said with a smile: "Where is different?"

“There are different anywhere.”

Fatty Zhou whispered: "When I was in the Imperial College, Sanlang looked like a young man, but now..."

He looked up and down at Lin Zhao a few times and whispered: "Now it seems that he looks a bit like the old officials in Chang'an City who have been through the court for a long time."

Lin Zhao smiled silently.

"Calling the time, I have been in the officialdom for more than four years this year. Isn't I an old official?"

He sat opposite Zhou De and asked softly: "What is the situation in Chang'an before Brother Zhou left Chang'an?"

“Not very good.”

Zhou De sighed slightly and said, "Fan Yang's rebels are coming in full force. I heard that Luoyang is no longer able to defend it. Seeing that Henan Prefecture is about to fall, the officials and people in Chang'an City are very worried. When I left Chang'an, many officials had already written letters to retire, and some people secretly ran out of Chang'an."

"It's nothing wrong to seek survival."

Lin Sanlang took a sip of tea and whispered: "According to my estimate, the possibility of the rebels attacking Chang'an City is quite high. At this time, we naturally have to protect ourselves. Uncle Zhou should be at the age of retirement?"

"The old man is very stubborn and refuses to leave."

Zhou De sighed, shook his head and smiled bitterly: "And my reputation in the officialdom of Chang'an City is nowhere better than when I was chaotic in the past. When those Qingliu saw me, they wished they could point at their noses and curse. My father doesn't like me now. He scolded me many times and hasn't asked me to go home for a long time."

Zhou De's father Zhou Song was a clerk in the late emperor's dynasty. He is still the Minister of Personnel. This Secretary of Zhou has always had a good reputation over the years, but because of Zhou De's son, he has been implicated in the past two years and has been scolded a lot.

Therefore, the old man was furious and criticized his young son many times in public, and refused to allow Zhou De to live home again.

Lin narrowed his eyes and thought for a while, then smiled and said, "The old man didn't tie your desk home, nor did he ask you to resign. He just scolded you, which means that the old man still supports you. It's just that it's hard to say good things to you, a traitor, on the contrary, for the sake of his face."

"The treacherous minister is the treacherous minister."

Zhou De snorted and gritted his teeth and said, "I am different from you, the official career of the scientific examination. I am a nobleman. If I don't take some shortcuts, I will be at the fourth or fifth grade for half of my life. What's the point?"

"I would go home and sleep with my father and woman, or I would climb to the highest point!"

Fatty Zhou had ambitions and patted Lin Zhao's chest.

"One day, I will make those Qingliu who scold me respectfully call me husband!"

My husband is the exclusive title of prime minister in this era. Except for a few shameless people, only the priest in the Zhengshitang is worthy of this title.

Lin Zhao gave him a thumbs up and praised him, "It's amazing. When Brother Zhou enters the Political Affairs Hall to be the prime minister, I will rely on your care."

“That’s natural.”

Fatty Zhou was proud.

"We are all from the same school, so we naturally have to take care of each other. Now Sanlang, you are about to be promoted. That boy Qi Xuan will probably become the Jingzhao Yin in a few years. At that time, the three of us in the school will help each other, and we can walk sideways in Chang'an City!"

"Promoted?"

Lin Zhao narrowed his eyes at Zhou De.

"Brother Zhou peeps at the imperial edict?"

Zhou De's face changed and he shook his head repeatedly: "Don't talk nonsense, what imperial edict am I peeping at?"

"If you don't peep, how do you know that the court wants to promote me?"

"Of course I guess..."

Fatty Zhou groaned and said, "The saint has traveled thousands of miles to Qingzhou to announce the imperial edict. Could it be that he has come to punish you? And I heard that Sanlang, you have brought out more than a thousand very decent united soldiers in Qingzhou..."

Speaking of this, he lowered his voice and curled his lips: "There are more than a thousand united soldiers here. To put it bluntly, the saint is now trying to punish you, and I'm afraid he is powerless."

Lin Sanlang looked at Zhou De with a smile.

"Brother Zhou, you dare to criticize the Holy Lord behind your back..."

"Don't talk nonsense."

Fatty Zhou glared at Lin Zhao: "It's just to tell the truth, what are you slandering?"

Lin Zhao smiled and patted his shoulder.

"Okay, you and my brother, don't keep it in hiding, bring the imperial edict."

"When I go out alone, how can I carry the imperial edict with you?"

Fatty Zhou smiled bitterly and said, "The imperial edict is still in the inn. I will show you tomorrow morning. But I have agreed in advance that I will verify the matter in Cangzhou before I can officially read it and hand it over to your hands."

"Don't worry, Brother Zhou."

Governor Lin's face was calm and he spoke: "Now Cangzhou has all taken over my hands. The united soldiers under my command are now in Lucheng, Cangzhou, and are close to Youzhou. In a few days, we will prepare to regain Youzhou for the court."

"Sure."

Fatty Zhou said angrily: "Even an amateur, I know that Youzhou is the base camp of Fanyang, so where can you, the governor of Qingzhou, be able to recover it? I want me to say, just fight Cangzhou and make some contributions in the court. Don't really fight with those vicious rebels."

Lin Zhao smiled and did not answer.

"Okay, Brother Zhou, don't keep it a secret. Let me tell you, what errand is the court going to give me?"

The general imperial edicts are usually not read, but Zhou De came to announce the imperial edict to Lin Zhao. He must have been curious about the contents of the imperial edict. He must have read them secretly for more than half a month along the way.

Zhou De hesitated for a moment and whispered: "Forget it, for brothers' sake, I will tell you first."

Governor Lin is in spirit.

"Speak quickly!"

Fatty Zhou lowered his head and drank a sip of tea, and spoke slowly.

"Lin Zhao, the governor of Qingzhou, also served as the governor of Dizhou and Cangzhou."

Speaking of this, he looked up at Lin Zhao and continued.

"Ren Qing, Di, Cang, Lai, Ji, Deng, Mi, Qi, Zi, Yanzhou Metropolitan Commissioner, general manager of the states to unite the troops..."
